Music news Vic Chesnutt talks health care on NPR's "Fresh Air"

Posted by Rodney Carmichael @Rappin_Rodney on Wed, Dec 2, 2009 at 5:15 AM

Athens-based singer/songwriter Vic Chesnutt and Guy Picciotto (Fugazi) joined Terry Gross on yesterday's (Dec. 1) episode of "Fresh Air" to discuss their recently released collaborative album, At the Cut.

Near the end of the interview, Chesnutt talks about the ongoing health care debate and how "insanely expensive" it's been for him to maintain his own health insurance. He fears he may loose his home — or worse, a kidney — if he can't pay an overdue surgery bill.

Listen to full audio interview and read Chad Radford's October interview with the two of them.
